"Whether you've watched her recently shred the courts in the U.S. Open, or you've been following her string of career achievements for years, Gauff is one of the biggest names in tennis. The world tuned into her talent when she was only 15 years old-one year into her professional career-as Gauff made history as the youngest to qualify for Wimbledon's main draw."
"Now at the age of 21, the professional athlete hasn't quit breaking records and taking names. In 2023, she became the youngest American to win the U.S. Open singles title since Serena Williams in 1999; she'd go on to claim the 2025 French Open singles title, her second Grand Slam singles victory. Gauff has also been crowned the world number one ranking in doubles, and world number two ranking in singles, according to the Women's Tennis Association."
"But beyond the court, the Florida native has expanded her empire into business. The Gen Z tennis star and entrepreneur has her own company, Coco Gauff Enterprise, to manage her business partnerships. This April, Gauff announced her venture on Instagram, saying how it would mirror "[her] passion for making an impact-not just in tennis but in business, philanthropy and beyond.""
Coco Gauff rose to global prominence as a teenager after qualifying for Wimbledon's main draw at 15 and has continued breaking records. At 21, she holds two Grand Slam singles titles — the 2023 U.S. Open and the 2025 French Open — and has reached world number two in singles and world number one in doubles. She served as the U.S. flag bearer at the Paris 2024 Olympics, the youngest American to do so. Off court, Gauff founded Coco Gauff Enterprise to manage business partnerships. Her business is powered by WME and her main sponsors include New Balance and Rolex.
